Had a Check Engine light. Misfire Cylinder 4. Code was P0304. I changed the plugs, wire, coil pack. Everything was fine check engine light went away for 24 hours. After the 24 hours the light came back. Had codes ran again and the same code came back. I then replaced the fuel injectors and the code and light went away. I had the computer scanned and came up no code/no errors found. Now today 2 days later, the check engine light is back. I figured it just might be a build up so I went to the store to get some seafoam however they were sold out so I used some lucas fuel management and Unhooked the battery to reset the check engine light. Anyone know what this could be? Any tips advice? Anything? Im getting terrible gas mileage. I was told that I need to get the codes scanned and get the computer reset? Anyone know how to reset a computer???

- Intake Vacuum leak? Where should I look to see if anything is unhooked or is there a specific area I should look at? I mean I change my oil and tranny fluid myself and my plugs and everything. I give the engine a once over every now and then and I still dont see any hoses unhooked. You dont think it is a vent door? You think a vaccum hose is unhooked or cracked?

I have a misfire in cylinder 4. I replaced the following: plugs, wires, coil pack, injectors, ran fuel line cleaner. Still have a misfire in cylinder 4, all I can think that it might be the Fuel Rail Wiring harness (electric wires that plug into the injectors). It looks lightly burnt from heat in sections. I purchased a code reader and it says Pending code cylinder 4. When I replaced the injectors which was the last thing I replaced the van had no codes and then 2 days later I had the check engine light again. Im think maybe I shorted the old wire out when I installed the NEW injectors (the witre is almost 10 years old). It almost feels as if the wire has a short (if the wire is even the problem) because it feels like I have fuel power at one minute and loss of power the next. Sometimes the check engine light comes on solid and sometimes it blinks and goes away. Does anyone agree or have any other suggestions? I order a new wire harness just waiting to receive it. Im strapped for cash and this was my fathers vehicle (he passed away in june) so Im trying to do the repairs myself to cut cost but to also keep the van up and running as long as possible. Thanks in advance to everyone.
